A Recent Typo in Our Footer Menu May Have Caused Offense, and For That I Can Only Apologize!

As part of our recent site refresh we (and by we, I mean ‘I’) made a small typo in the menu item titled “Discounts” by omitting a vowel. This omission may have caused offense for the 2 days it was live and for that I’m sorry.

In fairness our system has spell-checkers everywhere – apart from in the code-blocks for things like menu items – and as a dyslexic I tend to over-rely on these self-correcting bits of tech genius.

However in this case I clearly made an error.

Reminds me of my junior school project when we were studying early English history and the great king of England, Denmark and Norway, Cnut.

Oh how my parents tried so hard to stifle their laughter when my work was brought home, and they looked upon my beautiful artwork and carefully written titles in my neatest handwriting.

Like that great king, and his reversal of the tides, I have reversed the error and our discount and coupons page is now highlighted without any missing letters.

Do keep an eye on the page as we have some incredible offers, discounts and coupon codes coming in the following months, making your investment gold shine that bit brighter!

And I promise, from now on, I will ALWAYS triple-check my copy before setting it live.

  1. I don’t see what’s so offensive about dscount?
